OK, so why does a person need a GPS for a place they drive to all the time. That's another thing. It's not just exploration. It's hardly that. I just know it's easier to remember where you're going where you actually pay attention to where you go and if it's your first time going to this job then leave earlier.

Like I said, map quest and yahoo map work just as well.

And relying on the GPS can backfire on you too. For example, what if you decide to take a road trip and all of a sudden, you lose your signal. You're screwed.

GPSs suck.

What are you, a quaker?

HAHAHA!!!

On the topic of GPS, it really came in handy when my band was on tour. Not only for finding the clubs in all the various cities that we stopped off in, but also because it allowed us to look up local diners to grab food after shows. It's a tool. Just like a map is a tool. I don't get the GPS hate.

Evil, I predict that Do You See the Dark will be bigger than all of Led Zeppelin, Van Halen and Metallica combined once you stop using a GPS. You heard it here first.

no gps hate, just hate on over-relliance on gps.

just like no hate on medicine, but hate on prescribing stimulants to 5 year olds or putting people on 20 different anti-depressants. ridiculous. weakness.

For sure. I'm gonna stop using one as soon as I can start paying someone to drive us around while we party and sleep with every hot chick in town.

I said you'll be bigger than Van Halen, Led Zeppelin and Metallica combined. I didn't say you'd reach Allanfan status.

HAHA!! We aim high

I am 100% looking for a GPS on the next phone I get. Walking around the city with a GPS is the way to go- you never need to worry about finding a good place to eat or drink.

I want one of the android phones- supposedly new versions of the G1 are coming out in the next month or 2.
